Description

The listing, Fig Seeds! Heirlooms! (Brown Turkey Fig) has ended.

DELICIOUS! :)

The tree that these are from have been in our family since the early 1900's. They originated from my great great grandmother's tree. Each generation has the corresponding tree. Generations and generations of children as well as adults have eaten from these. A way to indulge on sweets without the consequences! This is the first time anyone other than family has had an opportunity to get anything from the family's trees. These will be VERY limited.

Winner will get 50 seeds on a cotton circle, inside a baggie. They will be very protected.

PLEASE, BE SURE TO LOOK UP GROWING DIRECTIONS!
I do not want you to pour your little green heart into these and be disappointed.

Thank you very much. :) I wanted to get a few of these out. I fear for the fate of our tree, due to the city expanding. I could dig it up, yes. But there's a great chance that it wouldn't survive all of the trauma. I am doing clippings too that I can keep in a pot to take with me when we have to move.

Oh my, I can truly understand your concern. To have such a heirloom is remarkable. And with you sharing it should make that there will be many more trees to continue giving pleasure as well as for many generations to come.

I love figs, so I really do I hope I win this one. Plus having seeds from this tree would make them just that much more special.

I wish you luck! ^_^ And jest to let you know, I will be doing ONE more auction for the same amount of seeds after this one, so if you miss this, you will have another chance. :)
